In the world of smartphone-based virtual reality, there’s Gear VR (http://www.greenbot.com/article/3073568/android/the-best-apps-for-the-samsung-gear-vr.html), and then there’s everyone else. Samsung’s collaboration with Oculus has resulted in superior quality and an impressive library of VR experiences. Google Cardboard (http://www.greenbot.com/article/2887272/android/the-best-google-cardboard-vr-apps.html) is cheap, but the quality is bad. Other stuff, like the Xiaomi Mi Play or Zeiss VR One, are plagued with tiny libraries and serious quality issues.
Now there’s a new challenger. I just spent 10 minutes with Google’s new Daydream View headset, and I can honestly say that I think it’s a better overall experience than Gear VR. My early impressions are clear: This is the smartphone VR to beat.
